Luis
will move to Stamford Bridge soon to discuss personal terms. He will join his Atletico
Madrid teammate Diego Costa who recently completed his move to Chelsea. The fee
reportedly is in the region of £20million for Luis.

The
28-year-old had an incredible season with the La Liga side as they won La Liga
after 18 years plus stood runner up in the Champions League campaign.

Atletico
Madrid revealed official statement: “Atletico Madrid and Chelsea have reached
an agreement to transfer the rights of Filipe Luis, pending a medical with the
English club.”

They
further added that their player expressed his desire to play for Chelsea at the
end of last season.

Chelsea do need a left-back as Ashley Cole joined Italian side Roma on a free transfer few weeks ago plus they played right-back Cesar Azpilicueta on the left side last season but with the arrival of Luis, Azpilicueta will move back to his favourite right side place.

The
Brazilian left-back has played 180 games since his move to the Spanish side in
2010.
